Engineering Biology for Climate & Sustainability

Contributors

Engineering Biology for Climate & Sustainability was created by over 90 individuals with expertise across engineering biology and other science and engineering disciplines. Roadmap contributors participated in a number of virtual workshops and collaborative writing sessions between July 2021 and April 2022, building on the work of their colleagues and bringing new ideas and approaches to each strategy laid out in the roadmap’s milestones and technical achievements. This EBRC roadmapping effort was led by Dr. Sifang Chen (EBRC Science Policy Postdoctoral Fellow), Dr. Emily Aurand (EBRC Director of Roadmapping and Education), and the EBRC Roadmapping Working Group, chaired by Dr. Michael Köpke (VP Synthetic Biology, LanzaTech).

The roadmap graphics were created by Dr. Carrie Cizauskas; Dr. Cynthia Ni (EBRC Science Policy Postdoctoral Fellow) designed the graphic that appears on this roadmap’s home page.
